Meanwhile, the Chiefs made an effort to prepare themselves for Swift visiting Arrowhead Stadium again this season
TAYLOR Swift had a sweet surprise for beau Travis Kelce before the Kansas City Chiefs officially launched their Super Bowl three-peat bid.
The 14-time Grammy winner made sure the NFL tight end was all set for another season of battling on the gridiron all around the country.
Taylor, 34, got Travis, also 34, a selection of designer clothes and bags ahead of his 2024 NFL season voyages, The U.S. Sun understands.
She thoughtfully picked out some of them in red, the color of the Chiefs, a source close to Kelce’s entourage said.
“The team is going back on the road for some many nice and long trip around the country, so that was a very nice move and idea from Taylor,” said the insider.
“She also got him some fall and winter clothes as the temperature is gonna drop soon: a turtleneck, jacket, coat, and a cardigan that he saw in Paris and that he kept talking to her about for a while.
“He is all set with all those items … as he likes to bring tons of stuff with him when he travels with the team, or even when he travels to go attend events and with Taylor.”
Kelce received a couple of Louis Vuitton’s Keepall Bandouliere 50 keepalls, one worth $4,000 and the other $4,800.
He also got a $11,100 rolling truck and a $1,130 toiletry bag from the same French fashion house.
To keep Travis warm, Taylor sent the Chiefs star a $2,060 cashmere cardigan, a $1,450 silk and cashmere turtleneck, and a $560 beanie, all from LV as well.
The singer also gifted Kelce a couple of jackets from Hermes, a $5,050 capsule rib-trim and a $5,850 hooded auto coat.
“They love to make presents on special occasions,” the source said.
And Travis is like a ‘lion in a cage’ for the start of this new season.”
The gifts were to wish Travis “a very good season,” said the insider.
“Travis is known for not being the most practical and organized guy to travel with,” the source continued.
“So we need many bags and [pieces of] luggage to take with him, as he always brings way more things that he needs to use during his trips!”
